First time doing lst. How’s it looking?

First time trying LST type thing. Should I just keep doing what I’m doing and fill the whole tent space up with tops? I still have a bit of vertical space. How’s it looking so far. Also most of my stems are dark purple and leaves very dark green. I’ve read it could be from too much UV light. I don’t think it’s a nutrient problem because every plant I put under this light ends up having its stems turn purple. I can turn down the UV on the light which I have on 100 percent right now.

Honestly your pictures are really bad and hard to see anything from that distance and then add the burple light it is impossible to tell.

Yeah I’m just not getting very good pictures. The leaves aren’t as dark as I was thinking. It was just the burple lighting. But yeah all the stems are dark purple. Still wondering exactly why. So LST I just keep bending them lateral so I get more and more tops right? I got those clips that bend the branches almost 90 degrees. If I take them off, are the branches gonna all straighten back out? Should I just leave them on til the finish?

Pics suck I know. But wondering why my leaves are all so small and they are very thick in texture and very pronounced wrinkles. And slightly clawing downward. Temps at the tops are around 85 degrees, a little warm. They are in aeroponic system fed a 7-4-10 grow nute and a 5-0-1 micronutrient formula. At about 600 ppm. Ph is fine. Roots are healthy. Growth has slowed a little bit in the past week.
